Data taken by the Pacific Northwest Laboratory photometer chain have been reviewed in a comprehensive search for stable auroral red (SAR) arc events during the period 1968-1978. Results of this search indicate both a seasonal and a solar cycle control of SAR arclike events. The occurrence rate of these events is shown to follow the solar activity cycle, though with a phase lag of 2-3 years. Further, a rather distinct summertime minimum of occurrence frequency is pointed out (northern hemisphere). Possible mechanisms for the existence of this effect are discussed.
